About Skye

“Hi my name is Skye and i live in Islandmagee in Northern Ireland with my mum, Jazz and Uncle Russy who is getting on in years. I’m black and white; mum Jazz and Uncle Russy are liver and white. Liver is a special springer colour. It is like a chocolate brown.All three of us have lots and lots of spots, flecks and smudges all over us, rather like joined-up freckles – even on our tummies and toes!Our noses are very good at finding anything interesting (no matter how well it may be hidden) and our tails never stop wagging! We have long fluffy ears that fly about when we run, especially when it is windy.We are very fast and energetic and love exploring and having fun.Would you like to hear about my adventures and stories? Then join me now……Oh! by the way, my stories are narrated by my people friend Hilary"
